Hi guys,
I am new to the board. I have working for Konica Minolta for 10 years now. I generally don't repair the machines. I am more a pre-sales engineer, so I know Fierys, Emperons, Scanning, Networking really well. Hopefully I can help a few folks out.
Anyhow at home I have a Minolta QMS 2300DL. It is leaving ghost images down the page. For example, on a Windows test page you see the Windows logo, then a ghost image about 5 inches down the page. I suspect it is the cleaning blade on the OPC drum, but the drum is only at half of it's life cycle. I figure it is either than or the cleaning blade on the transfer belt.
I was going to buy a new OPC drum but since they are over $100 I was hoping that someone could tell me that I was on the right path. I don't want to put another $100 into the printer only to find out that it was really the transfer belt unit that was the issue.
